Dual female leads + bittersweet push and pull + both leads' first love + the powerful one bows her head + marriage before love
A fox-clan goddess with a dark, lonely heart x a naive, pure-hearted, timid ray of sunshine
"Su Xianyue, I should be free."
After writing the final stroke, Gu Wan left the note on the desk and looked around the demon palace that had imprisoned her for three months before resolutely leaving.
Even a life of fine clothes and good food could not clip her wings.
And she would never trust a fox demon.
"Su Xianyue, I'll trade you a marriage contract."
"You don't want my life. This is all I have left."
Three years later, fate pushed Gu Wan back in front of Su Xianyue in a manner almost mocking in its cruelty.
Her life had been used as a bargaining chip by her sect. With her Golden Core shattered and a strange poison in her body, Gu Wan had nothing and nowhere to go.
The one who had clipped her wings was not a fox demon from the demon clan, but the sect and mentor she had once believed would save her.
"Gu Wan."
"I'm not like them."
There was a chill in her peach-blossom eyes, one Gu Wan had never seen before.
If she had truly wanted to force Gu Wan, how could Gu Wan have escaped her back then?
"No. You're all I have left in this world."
Slender fingers pressed against her cool, thin lips. The Gu Wan of the past, the sunny and free Gu Wan, was already dead.
She willingly stepped into the fox demon's sweet cage, sinking into it and growing addicted, shutting out everything else and clinging to the last bit of warmth left in the world.
"Gu Wan..."
Her nine tails swayed, and demonic power surged into the sky.
The fated one she treasured, coaxing and pampering her, had been humiliated to this extent.
"I'll take revenge with you."
Her heart's blood dripped down, and the marriage contract took effect.
The contract wasn't proof that she meant to imprison Gu Wan. It was a promise she made to her.
Born with a lack of emotion, Su Xianyue had no idea how to fall in love.
But her heart beat with true feeling for Gu Wan alone.
